Form Guide: Milan (D L - - -) Udinese (W W - - -)

Last season: Milan 4-4 Udinese

Stat fact: This was the fixture of the 2010-11 season, as Milan fought back from 3-1 down to draw 4-4 in an epic thriller. It was no fluke, as in the last six San Siro meetings there have been a total 35 goals.

FORZA MILAN!

No, I'm 100% with Blue on this one, it's going to the same case again. (IMG:style_emoticons/default/sad.gif) It's pretty much unwise (or should I say idiotic) to do the same thing and expect a different results. Yes, there is an element of player motivationa, but right tactics can take care of that much smoother than giving the squad an aderlanie rush of sorts.

We are either going to play the game at our pace, or let Udinese play it at their terms. They are not Lecce or Cesana (even though we are well aware what these small sides can do), that we start playing cowboy with. We'll need a watergtight defense or a disastrous draw is the best we can manage. Nobody remember the 4-4? (IMG:style_emoticons/default/sleep.gif) For a solid defense we need a midfield that can absort the pressure, not get run over.

Simply put we don't have the player due to injury (and what we do have are not cut for it) to go in and strangle Udinese in their half. Sure everyone can create, but what if that's the plan? What if Udinese want our creative players in their half so they can defend and counter? (IMG:style_emoticons/default/wink.gif) This game is very important, definitely the most important game thus far in our season. We gave Napoli the advantage last week, if we lose 2-3 points today, then this is going to give the other contenders a mouthwatering advantage - 1 point out of 9 is just not on. Same goes for 2 out of 9.

PS. By sitting back we don't mean play like a second teir club. I'm just saying play like a champion. An arrogant champion when it draws or loses does not look nearly as bad as a stupid champion. FACT.
